Rykers 7th Birthday and End of the School Year

My Ryker Boy turned 7 this year!! He woke up bright and early with excitement and came and got in bed with me. Shaun was already up getting ready for work so Ryker and I laid in bed and I told him about the day he was born. May 18th 2005 changed my life forever.

His birthday was on a friday so he stayed home from school to have fun with this family. Shaun was able to take a half day from work and we meet up with him to have pizza for lunch.

Then we headed home and we let Ryker open his presents from us. 

Ryker didn't waste anytime opening up his new Lego sets. They got right to work putting everything all together.

Then Millie and I headed over to Nana and Pas to get things set-up for his birthday party. We invited a few families to come over and swim and eat BBQ with us. I didn't get any pictures of kids swimming but here they all are jumping on the tramp.

Ryker loves his chocolate cake.

With a few days left of school Ryker's teacher invited me and 2 other moms in to have pizza with the class as a thank you for helping all year long. The 3 of us came in each week the whole school year and helped in the classroom. I loved going to help.....it reminded me of my days working at Finley Farms in the KG classrooms. It is also a great way to get to know all the kids in his class really well. So I had to bring Rigdon with me and he sat and acted like he belonged. It was really cute.

Then right after that we went over to pick up Amelia on her last day of preschool with Ms. Johnson. She normally LOVES to sing and dance but she was acting super weird and wouldn't get up and sing with her class. I think she was sad that it was the last day. Oh well, as soon as we got home she sang all the songs for me.

The next day was Ryker's class party. Ms Born gave the kids these awesome yearbooks that she made. It was fun to celebrate with his class and all the parents.

Her is a picture of Ryker's closest friends. They are all great boys and I'm pretty sure all they talked about is Mario Bros.  Ryker is really going to miss them!
